How much is GC giving for x-boxes and is the 50% tradein worth anything of value for the 360? I got some games but it wont be anything near the $400 towards it, how are they with tradein prices because well if I can get about 200 worth of tradeins, I just might convince my dad to get a 360 (He wants one of these, but he is waiting for a price drop but if we can get alot here he might splurge eariler).

Noob question here but I've never been to a GameCrazy but a new Hollywood Video just opened near me. Do you need a membership to Hollywood Video to purchase games? $20 for Table Tennis doesn't seem bad. I remember an employee at a Blockbuster asked for membership card when I bought a game from there.
Scorch
12-23-2006, 02:07 AM
Do you need a membership to Hollywood Video to purchase games? $20 for Table Tennis doesn't seem bad.
They're two completely seperate companies. Nothing at Hollywood has anything to do with GameCrazy. They're under the same corporate umbrella, but no information is shared whatsoever.
And no, you don't need a membership to buy a game.

The 3 for $10 @ GC is 3 "classic" games for $10, not a trade-in deal.

Is the 3 for $10 promotion at GC like the ones that EB/GS has done? Does it stack with the MVP card?
As stated, it's the "classic plastic" sale. Any three games for NES, SNES, Genesis, GB, GBC, GG, PS1, Dreamcast, or N64 for $10.
Over easy
12-23-2006, 04:14 AM
Aww... No other PSP game deals other than VCS?
It's too bad GC never runs trade-in promos (like EB or GR with bonus credit on game trades - not system deals). I'm actually back to trading at GC a bit right now because GR is pissing me off with their utter lack of getting anything in that I preorder (and no Wii stuff at all yet). Getting $10 extra credit on 3 games would have been very nice ;).
I do have a 20% bonus credit (when trading 3 or more games) coupon from a system purchase. I'm going to try to get one semi-large trade done with that. Scorch, do those coupons stack with MVP as well? It says nothing about it on the coupon. I also have that $5 off controller coupon - I should have used that on a Nunchuk because they had them there yesterday. They probably sold them all today though.
For the guy who said Blockbuster wanted a membership card when buying a game - it isn't required there either for buying things. It is just a knee-jerk reflex they always have. The advantage for you is that if you lose your receipt and need to return it, the purchase is in your account history. And I like to have them record my purchases so they see how much I actually spend there (as I have racked up tons of credit through their trade-in promos and want to show them I at least spend it all there as well).

Since when does GC do PM's? I know they trade match, but I don't think they can PM.
RS: Vegas is the 360 version. GC DOES sell PC games, but they don't get any in unless you preorder them.. for example, that new Warcraft expansion that everyone's all hyped about.. whatever it's called.. GC will sell it, but they'll only get it in if you go ahead and preorder it. So.. technically yes, but no. I guess. Whatever.

If you have an actual paper ad thaqt you can let us keep then we will price match, also we must call the store that the ad is from and make sure that they still have copies of the game in stock.

12-25-2006, 02:04 AM
Since when does GC do PM's? I know they trade match, but I don't think they can PM.
it depends on the manager and/or district manager for policies on price match. for instance in our san diego district there are some price matching rules such as:
- gamestop, eb, planet x (anything else gamestop owns), gamerush (if we had one) pricematches only.
- we have to call to verify the price.
- we don't match deals like buy 2 get 1 free. or buy a system and get a free game. stuff like that. we only match the price of an actual product.
i've heard of other stores only allowing pricematches if you have the ad and only one item per transaction. it really depends on the manager. so i guess what im saying is YMMV on game crazy price matcching policies.
in general i believe every game crazy is supposed to do pricematches.

12-25-2006, 02:26 AM
my district doesn't apparently.. with the exception of black friday, when a memo was sent down to PM. at least I don't think they pm.. that's what i was told
also for those that bought a PS3 or a Wii ANYWHERE, take the receipt to GameCrazy and you will get a free sheet of bounceback coupons, coupons for various things like $5 off something, 20% off a used game, etc.. Pretty smart move, getting the customers in the store for first party new junk. I've already seen a used COD3 and Resistance.. the 20% off coupon would knock it down to 39.99.. good times.

uhh.. not sure what you're looking for. They're priced five to ten dollars less than retail (for example.. Elite Beat Agents $29.99 new/$19.99 used, $17.99 with MVP card). Most used DS games will qualify for the 24.99 and under thing.

I can't even remember the last R6 I played, but it woulda been a looooooooong time ago (like, back on the Dreamcast). I think I may have played an R6 game on the Xbox, but never did the multiplayer. GnF is decent so far, but I've only been using it for about a month. So far, so good though.

Then you talked to a dumbass employee. They're on sale. When they scan, they come up the sale price. It's nationwide. The person you talked to is probably just coming back in and just looked over on the wall. Paperwork printed out this morning, the sale prices are in the computer. Even if it says $59.99 for Vegas on the wall, when it scans, it scans at 39.99.

I'm not sure that this is nationwide. I called a local GC that isn't a franchise store, and their prices didn't drop on SC: DA or R6:V. I heard him typing it into the computer over the phone. However, the one franchise location in my area, had the sale prices in the system but sold out when they opened.

edit 2: Just got home, the combination of $17.99 Used 360 Games with Buy 2 get 1 Free $24.99 and under worked out extremely well. Walked out with mint and complete used copies of Table Tennis, Quake 4, and Ridge Racer 6 for $34.88 after tax. Thanks for the heads up on these deals Scorch!

I originally was looking for a Classic Controller or Points, but nothing. Ok so all the used games they had there were crap (and I mean crap, because I could of done the b2g1f but they had nothing that was either 5 years old or udder garbage), and the classic plastic is a bin with junk in it. Yeah my game crazy sucks.

From what I have heard, LCS is better on the PSP, because the game was specifically designed to play on the portable system.
I don't believe there has been any announcement of VCS coming out for the PS2.
rockstar said no to VCS on ps2. probably because of the shitty sales of LCS on ps2.

my local store had all three, actually.. passed on Super Metroid but picked up the latter two.. my second copy of LttP (in case my first one dies for some reason, I love that game), gave CV IV to a friend.

Hey guys...I have a PSP that they said they'll take for $90 (I hardly play the thing at all) so according to this deal if I trade it in towards a 360 they'll take the psp for $45 more right? Just trying to figure out if im interpreting the deal right....i have $33 bucks in games to trade in as well...so if i can pick up a 360 for a little less than half off...I'm sold on it.
Edit: just came back from there...apparently they must've did something wrong because they ended up taking my psp for $180 instead of $135...and my used games tacked on another $45...walked out with a $208 premium 360 =)

my 20% employee discount didn't hurt either.
so when you scanned the coupon code and a warning popped up saying employees can't use coupons what did you do? I'm guessing you just marked one down to zero.
EDIT: for everyone thats getting denied on the collectors splinter cell ask the manager to see the counter sign that has splinter cell and rainbow six it is the collectors edition and then there is another sign that has the regular SC on it so YES they are both on sale. If it is in the ad and they have a sign for it then they (we) must honor it.
Wish I had gotten the ad earlier in the week or looked at this thread, as I've been wanting Rainbow Six. I'll go tomorrow and hope they still have some in stock. I'll dump GRAW, PGR3, and some old Xbox games which will hopefully pay for most of it.

no, you add everything and use the coupon first, then bring up the employee account then it uses your employee discount. you're allowed to do this. that message is just something they never changed.

just out of curiosity, are ANY of them for the PC version?

I didn't really want to trade in my games right now anyways. Thanks for the tip.

I am pretty sure it ends tomorrow. And definitely have them scan it. When I went for R6: Vegas, the shelf said $60. I asked the guy to scan it, and he was shocked that it was $40.

price matching at gamestop is so YMMV it's not even funny. i saw a guy price match those circuit city 9.99 games this past summer (dragonquest 8, time splitter future perfect, etc) at gamestop. so i went to the same gamestop to price match a price from best buy and they said no. so it's very YMMV.

Anyone know what's up with Buy 2 Get 2 free? I had 3 different stores tell me it was supposed to start Sunday, but when I went shopping at some different area stores they knew nothing about it. I then felt stupid when I looked at the flyer because the current B 2 G 1 wasnt even over. One of the stores that told me it started is indeed doing the deal, but apparently they are manually overriding the prices since theres no coupon to scan.

There's no official B2G2.. the deals through the end of January have been sent down, the only thing it mentioned was the B2G1, as well as the 3 for 10 running until the end of January. It may be just that store.. who knows. Each store manager seems to do whatever they want.

I was told that the 2-for-1 deal ends today. Picked up 3 360 games. Thought about getting Vegas...but my huge backlog of games is ridiculous, not including the 3 games that I just bought today. Argh. My wife would kill me if she actually understood all that I bought for gaming, even if it is with my CAG powers.

I go to two GameCrazys in my area. One of them DOES have the B2G2 deal, but the other only has B2G1. So like what Scorch said, its YMMV by whatever the store manager decides on.

01-03-2007, 04:30 AM
nothing is ever YMMV.... EVER, if any store says otherwise then ask for the district managers phone number, they will be sure to fill you in on any deals that are and are not going on in the store. from dec 25-dec 31 all new games 18.99 and less were buy 2 get 1 FREE as of Jan. 1- jan. 7 they are buy 2 get 2 FREE. all of the other deals are now dead, including rainbow six, activision games those all ended on jan. 2.
also I need to find out more but all store should have received there new promotional stuff which includes 20% off USED games and 20% more trade with MVP and also new magazines with MVP cards and the one I really have questions about becuase of the wording is a big purple poster that says add an additional 15% when you trade in 3 or more games I am not sure but i think that is in addition to the MVP card so that would make it 25% above trade in value. If anyone has any other questions concerning Game Crazy deals feel free to ask me (PM) I work at Game Crazy 135794 forest park, OH you can ask ShipWreck he has seen me. The reason I say ask me instead of Scorch is that he doesn't work there so even though it sounds like he lives at his GC his job doesn't depend on knowing every single deal in the store and every price.

I thought up the same idea as soon as we got the signage saying that you could trade in a ps3 toward a 360, but I don't have the "fatwallet" to cover it and I already have a 360. This is VERY YMMV, but after some explain I'm sure you can get any employee to go along with it because, it looks good for them because they can they sell the used ps3 and also they sell two peices of hardware which looks good on the weekly ranker. If you do try this and the employee is unsure tell them that part of the extra money will go toward buying a service contract then you have 2 years on your system (1 year micro. 1 year GC) and we have $8 in our pocket (thats how much we make off you buying a service contract.

Super Dodge Ball (NES, w/ manual)
Bomberman (GEN)
3 for $10:
Streets of Rage (GEN)
Ultimate Qix (GEN)
Virtua Racing (GEN, complete)
Then, the cashier gave me Slaughter Sport (GEN, complete) for FREE since it scanned for a penny.
The score of the day went to my friend who got a complete top loading NES for $50 :drool:
